'()REIGN INTELLIGENCE. (From the Etoile of Friday.) Pants; Nov. 2.—lt was on his arrivallet Twer, on the )3 t h o f October, that the Emperor of Russia reeeiVeil; by a courier, the news of the close of the negotiations at Aker mann. The Turkish Plenipotentiaries have ended, by ae cepting and signing, on the 6th of October, the' draft of the convention, which was proposed, to them, on the be half of ItiSsia. Agreeably to the last Article of that eoe vention, the ratifications are to be exchanged at kker trienn, within the space of four Weeks at farthest. • (From the Etude of Saturday.) OD SSA, OCT. 14.--As soon as the news of the signing of the additional Convention of the Treaty of Bucharest was received here, the troops, who bad marched to the frontiers, withdrew to their old quarters. It may be counted upon, that our Emperor will ratify this conven tion without delay. - Some temporary difficulties may, per haps, arise at Conattintinople. The Mufti will have to affix a fetwa to this treaty of peace, which will not be published till after the meetings extraordinary of the Divan on this , subject. Although it seems probable that, tinder the present circumstances, the Divan will agree to the rati fication, it yet, in the last instance, depends upon the :Mufti; but, in the end, as the armaments of the Porte are . yet in their infancy, the Mufti must, like the Sultan, bend to circumstances. The ratification once obtained, the Greek question, already indirectly agitated at Constanti nople by Mr. Stratford Canning, and which several great powers have declared, in the conferences of St. Peters burghi to be European, will be brought upon the carpet, and raise new embarrassments. Some persons say, jokinglyi upon the matter, tlutt the Turks will be chased .. out of Europe, in a friendly way by simple ultimatums. Others do not see SO easy a mode of getting out of this labyrinth. OCTOBER 15.—,The additional convention consists, pro perly speaking, of eight articles, which contain the propo sitions of Russia, that have been so often disputed. It stipulates, among other things, for the entire liberty of the navigation of the Black Sea to the Russian flag; the es tablishment of a divan in the principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia • the capability of re-election for the Hospodars at the end of their administrative period of seven years ; the te-establishment of the privileges of Servia, and the evacuation of that Province, with the ex ception of the fortresses, by the Turkish troops; and, finally, it derna»ds, that the claims of Russian subjects should be liquidated by a mixed commission, and that the payments should be made to the Russian ,Charge d'Affaires at Constantinople. ;DECREE OF THE . PRINCESS REGENT. Ltsnos, Oc'r. 18, 1826.-1. I newt in the name of the king, the resignation which has been tendered to me by Joseph Antonio Guerreiro, of his Majesty's Council, of his place of Secretary of State in the Department of Ecclesiastical and Judicial Affairs, and I nominate as his successor, ad interim, until the arrival of M. Mello Breyner, the Judge Gaya Darter. 2. Having given the command of the, division of Ope rations to the Secretary of State in the War Department, during ,his absence his port-feuille is confided to the Attester of Marine. Brigadier-General Berme, the Colonel of Cavalry, Lobo, Major of Engineers, Friere, win/ were broken in 182 S, for their adherence to the Constitution, Bre restored to their respective ranks. The 18th October, the anniversary of, the King Don Pedro, is placed among the number of grand gala &aye, by decree of the Prince Regent. The telegraphic bulletin of the 11th, announced the appearance in the waters of Lis bon, and at a great distance out at sea, of a ship, two frigates, and two brigs of war, seventeen ships and fourteen brigs, inerchantmen---none of them bearing any flag by which their nation Could be made out. (From the C4;tattitutionnet.)

The small detachment of English troops, who bave hi therto not yet been . charged with any service . near her Royal Highnese, has been located in the street d'APala use the right,on the ascent of the small hill, between the nearest quarter of the quay of the Tagus, destined for the cavalry of the Commercial Volunteer Guard and the. troops of the Linz. in barracks, on the platform before the Palace. The two,lotisli ships of war who have dropt (lowa the river Tagus, rebdorced by two brigs of war of the same nation, are anchored, and form a half-circle exactly facing the quay, in the shape of a half-moon, between the Belim square and the Royal Palaces of Ajuda, which is situated on AB , tion at the distance of a musket shot from this squadron of observation:. The town of Belem is very near the point occupied by the squadron. The Admiral'a ship and the other English men of war have not changed their position in the upper part of the Tagus parallel to the heart of the. town. The landing of the English troops has produced a strong imps,ession on the minds of the inhabitants of that capital; aml it easy to foresee that this intelligence will produce the same 4 effect , inithc provinces.

This detachment may, therefore, be considered as an advanced guard, which is to be regularly relieved. The. greatest tranquillity continues to reign in this capital. SWINDLING EXTRAORDINA o j f el i z i e h! t ti l iy . esterday BRUSsIaS, OCT. 31.—The Tribunal a fine % f a:Med of condemned Madame la Comtesse de swindling, to a year's imprisonment, to nil/ninny)) o f f h( , pensigorins, And the costs. This was the Nov. 2.—The Countess of jersey, i w.mse cor u le tY. we announced the day before yesterday, l o d ged I .l i ' l ati r month of March last at the hotel of M. de Vos, at 00 the Being without means to support herself, she se t " nt f or M. lierwyn, of that town, to whom she told in collibi mee the secret connection which she had wi, a Captain s she said, with 13 oonaparte on the island of Elba, with Maitl Ad MOM, her travels in a p ll arts of the world, and the huge sums whielt she was to receive in England by virtue of the soil of the Ex-Emperor. She assured him that, among othel - things, she Wanted the certificate of e her daughter's d e at::..., and some other papers, which wer in the hands of the i i i ,,id Captain, at Live r p ool ; and that, on producing those paPh, - ,5 she would receive the enormous sums that were beipleathcd to her. .. On the credit of this statz . ment , accompanied ny t even ears, Al. Berwyn a dvanced the l a dy" rt , sum of money, and gave her a letter of recommudatfort „to a house in Liver- Pool, i 11 order to go and fetch the paper% which were to wecuro to htr the enjoyment of it considerable Itiftune• nu t ' after a reaktenee of some weeks at Liverpool, the le4y re turned without Panel's and ...without money, Fa WI even borrowed of the persgns to whom she was recom mended some pounds sterling, for which she had been obliged to leave her paper+ pawn. Returning to Os tend, M. Herwyn perceived that he had been duped; but he by no means suspected another trick which the lady intended to play him. He had in his hands receipts for the money Which he had lent her, and under the pretext of procuring him, instead of these: receipts, a regular deed, she got them into her hands again ; but instead of giving him another deed in exchange, she decamped from Ostend , without paying either her landlord or her com plaisant lender. In this state of things she arrived at Ghent in the month of July, and took up her lodging in the hotel of the Golden Lion. In order to obtain money, she put in practice the same means that she Mt& employed to captivate the confi deuce of M. Herwyn. She announced herself as the Coun tess of Jersey, possessing an immense fortune, pretending to be connected with the highest personages and the first houses in Europe. She gave out that she was in expec tation of the arrival of Joseph Buonaparte, and even went to Moorejeur to purchase the chateau which she intended for him; she desired to hire and to furnish in the most ele gant manner, a house in this city .; and saying that she had no children living, she promised to leave all her fortune to him who would have ,the complaisance to advance her a sum of money in the temporary embarrassment in which she found hertielf. All this was supported iry all the charms o eloquence, and a seducing coquetry.--- . Numerous papers, written in a language which few people understand, were also produced, to give credit to the part she played. By means of all these ma-, ncenvres she succeeded in obtitjni Of, from some g,e?tlemen in the city not only moneyMnt a house richly famished, with every thing that Vte wanted Ur/lye in the most splendid style. At length people became convinced that this woman was nothing but a swindler, who specu lated on the good faith of honest persona to cheat them of money, &c. She was prosecuted by the public Procurator. Never .was there a more select or a more numerous audi tory seen in the Court; indeed, the pleadings and the sen tence merited the attention of the public. The Countess defended herself with imperturbable sang froid, and her Counsel showed, in an eloquent defence, that a Man May havegreat talents and lose his cause. The Judges retired for a long time, and on retnrning into Court pronounced the sentence of he lady, who seemed, while she listened to it, maitresse de ses tens et comme arouttimc'e a de tell jugemens. COLOMBIA. (From the Newcastle Chronicle.) By the last Government Gazette from Bogota, dated 23d of July, we 'observe that Congress have confirmed the grants of land ceded to General Montilla, and a few other officers of acknowledged merit. The same liberal policy has also been extended to some other individuals, who have rendered important services to the Colombian State : —Amongst the latter is our much-respected townsman, Edward Hall Campbell, Esq.,. who has had confirmed to him a grant of one hundred and fifty thousand fanegadas (equal to about 900,000 British acres,) of land, in the canton of Ocano, upon the banks of the celebrated river Mag dalena, in the province of Mompos, unquestionably one of the most healthy and fertile provinces in all Co lombia. It is true, Mr. Campbell has been one of their most zealous friends. He furnished the patriots with the first ship of war they possessed. The vessel in question, sailed from this country about nine years ago, taking with her four companies of British volunteers, completely equipped as riflemen—several thousand stand of urms, and a considerable quantity of ammunition and stores, She was commanded by Captain IL Weatherley (also of this town), who showed great skill and Manage mind in evading the different cruisers then upon the coast of Colombia, and in safely conducting the vessel into the Orinoko, to the great joy of the then desponding patriots. This vessel subsequently bore the flag of the Colombian Admi ra l pplon, who was very successful in his einises in .her against the ,efterny. In the year following e. in MS), Mr. Campbell dispatched 11 second ship to the Co lombian State ; and has, in fart, in a variety of ways, ~,proved himself one of the most firm and zeakins s'epporters of the rising liberties of the South Americans, It is, therefore, with sincere pleasure that we notice the liberal conduct of the government of Colombia towards those who so, generously came forward to aid and relieve her, in the days of diflieulty and peril. We may be assured (and this we would particularly press upon the notice of the bondholders), that a Government which has shown such A hatable anxiety to discharge the obligations of gra tituder in t4s instances before us, will not be deficentin pro - % it II with All ptr4 icable celerity, for those weightier obligations reSilltf4 ffoin their monied transac tiotcapitalistscave of this cptintry. with t vi; i , e ll.1 h have GUNPOWDER Pulp KEPT.—A Holiday at the Bank, and both • the Stock Exchange. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin—Finding some of the public Journals have insert ed my expulsion from the Stork Exchange, and being a member of many other Societies, I fuel it a duty I owe to myself to explain the reasons of such expulsion, Without entering into useless detail of a question, al ready before the public (namely, the Canada Company) the statement of facts are these; The parties concerned are the public, on one side, us having sold shares to Stock Exchange members, through their brokers; and the pub lic on the other side, as having bought shares in like man ner. I think, therefore, it must require no great degree of mind to show'that a Stock Exchange Committee can not be a proper or efficient tribunal for such decision; thaf however, as my friends-in the house well know, is not the point which 1 have ever considered, being in my own mind convinced, that if they were to study it for seven years, their time would have been as well employed in blowing bladders. It being, however,'very notorious, that several members have been sitting on this Stock Exchange Committee for mere than five or six weeks, who have bargains pending, either for themselves, their partners, or principals, I was strongly Ragged by brokers, with whom I have transactions pending; to iprotest againt such an injustice, and in so c ;,ping, the words which hav e incurred then:displeasure are those--" that a committee so formed of men sitting in judgment on their own ease was A ti-41 dishonourable committee, and that the public would say, if they decided it in our favour, that we were a set of swindlers and rogues." Now I contended that in using those words I was conscientiously endeavouring to uphold the respecta bility of the Stock Exchange, as Ittiodredethere, I hope, will testify I have ever endeavoured to no man, how ever, with a well constituted m ind, can calmly reflect on his conduct without feeling pain at having , used ungentle manly language (though he may have been betrayed into that warmth by his earnest desire to p erform i positive duty) ; all that regret I feel, but: when I reflect that these very men can iietecta member of their body, but a. fort niglu before, quoting false price, a thing, than which no thing can be more dishonourable, and merely reprimand that member, whilst on me, wbo have been rn that house from a boi, and will confidently defy a n y ou r of its mem bers, or any human being, to charge me with an act of dui , honour, or with an act at all equivocal in its honounible Character, they have sought to wreak all the vengeance. I frankly d ec l are that no powo on earth shall make me re cal the language I have used to such men, be in g convinced that, tho ug h their conduct may add to my eliaracter, :it is nett bend their power to detract from its sincerity Of r espectability, Nuvqaber 4, 1826. ,).

We have received since our last the Paris Papers of Thursday and Friday, anti the Etode of Saturday morning. The acceptance of the Russian Ultimatum by Turkey is placed beond a doubt, but the ratifica tion of the treaty, whiclNinilly depends on the Murrt, will probably be procrastinated. The Emperor NI IJOLAS arrived in St. PetersbUrgh on the 18th tilt., and the Ambassadors from the different Courts who were present at the Coronation are on their return. The Duke of thIVONS MIRE, with his suite, reached Francforrt on the 18th ult. The accounts from Lisbon in the Etode of Satur day, come down to the 18th ult., but furnish few ad ditional particulars. The number of marines landed from the British squadron is lIONV stated at 250, but though the number was. so small, the influence of this measure is said to have been immense. It is added, that it was believed that 2000 men could be landed in case of necessity. These accounts afford but little further intelligence from Algarves, where the insur rection seems to haVe completely failed. The French Funds have risen without any assignable cause. Ex tracts of these Papers will be found in another column. Fsxxcx FUNDS.—PARIS, Nov. 2.—Five per Cents. closed at 99f. 40c.

On the 28th we had a violent storm here. A milk barge, from this city, was upset in crossing the Elbe, and as far as, we could learn, ten perished. - Among them were a 1111111 and his wife, , who have left three children. The number of persons lost cannot be exactly ascertained, as there were several passengers in the barge. YLCHAIi IL Alit; LONDON'. Ilnunuttou, Ocr. 30.-36 14i; two,montbs, 56 83.

The Austrian Observer of they. 23(1 ult. also reached us last night. The Chief Turkish Commis sioner at Akennann arrived at Jassy on the 11th ult., on his way to Constantinople, bearing the convention agreed on at Akennann, by the Turkish and Russian Plenipotentiaries, for the Sultan's ratification. All apprehensions of war had ceased, at Jassy ; the other Turkish Commissioners were expected to return to Constantinople at the end of October. We received this morning the Journal de St Petersburgh of the 22d nit, which announces ofliciall , the arrival of the Emperor NICHOLAS and the Mein , hers of the Imperial Family in the capital : ST. PETERSBURGII, OCT. 18. Their Majesties the Emperor and Empress, and the young Grand Duke Alexander, arrived in this city to-day at half-past eleven. They alighted at the Cathedral of our lady of Kasen, where Te Deum was sung, after which the Metropolitan, in a few words, offered his congratula tions to their Majesties, and gave his pastoral benediction. As they left the Church, en immense multitude drawn to gether by the desire to see our beloved Sovereign and his august consort, welcomed t h em w ith the most joyful ac clamations of the illuminations of this ev en i n g, which were more splen did than those that took place on the receipt of the news of their Majesties' Coronati on , o f which we have '"rea`l given an account.

The Nuremburg Correspondent of the 29th ult. says that the Duke of SAXE COBURG has refused his ra tification to the convention for the partition of thy erritory of Saxe Gotha and Altenburg, of which such 7requent mention has been made. It is probable that ;his affair has been brought before the German Diet. The following is .an extract of a letter, which we re ceived by the'packet yesterday, from our Correspondent in Jamaica : We are unusually dull: Paez will meet serious opposition from. General Bermudez, and fewer friends in Venezuela than he at first anticipated. In Chili, too, it seems that O'Higgins has succeeded in turning out Freyre, and replacing himself in the Dictatorship. These events show how little stability there is in the new coun tries, and how much yet remains to be done, before they can be ranked amongst civilised nations. By the return of the Tweed, we lea'rn that the inhabitants of Hayti have not altogether ap proved of the late French treaty of Boyer's, especially those of the city of St. Domingo, who not only refused to pay their por tion, but offered to make a good vacancy in the Presidency; for the General, next in command to Boyer, and in which they would not have wanted aid. The latter saw his danger ; and, accord ing to Captain Hunn, it is now settled that lie is to plead inability to perform the terms of the agreement with France, and, in De cember next to place all nations on the same footing as regards commerce. Aurora, Harlequin, and Tweed, have captufed a Spanish slaver ; this makes the eighth in twelve months; but, unfortunately for the cruisers, as well as for the poor wretches themselves, their whole number falls a little short of a thousand. The Gazette of Napoli di Romania, of September 12, an nounces tl►e arrival of a steam boat on the 14th, eight hours after sun set, in the Gulf of Argos. "As soon as it was descried," says the account, " the news spread through the city, and the 'inhabitants, roused from the arms of Morpheus, hastened to the ramparts, &c. to enjoy this novel sight. The moon shining bright, the vessel was easily distinguished, and, ou its anchoring in the port, became the object of general and eager curiosity ; boats, filled with people, surrounded it on all sides. Mr. Francis Abney Hastings, captain and owner of the vessel, offered to sell it to the Government, which did not hesitate a moment to buy it for 15,0001. sterling. Thus it became Greek, instead of En glish property, and received the name of Karteria (the Pe►seve rance). It is 233 tons burthen, English measure. Thus Greece has also a steam-boat." In the following numbar of the Gazette de Napoli it is stated, " that On the 16th, at ten o'clock, the Greek flag was hoisted on board the steam-boat, amidst a salute of artillery. The members of the Committee of Government, and several members of the Na tional Assembly, who had come to view the vessel, were on board during the ceremony. The Government, considering the services, the virtues, the natural and acquired talents of Mr. Hastings, has given him the rank of Captain of a frigate, and the command of the Perseverance. Captain A. F. Hastings has been before this in Greece, and fought for its rights, and thereby acquired the esteem of all the Greeks. He now receives a high rank in the Greek navy, and the command of our first steamboat. The Greek navy may justly be proud of him, and Greece expects splendid deeds from him, conv►nced that he is in all respects capable of them." We insert in another column a letter which we have received from a Mr. JOHN WILLIAMS, a Gen tleman who has been expelled from the Stock Ex change by the Committee for managing that House, in consequence of having hastily used some strong and coarse expressions on the expected decision of the Committee upon the question of the Canada Company Shares. We are not fond of bringing any such dis putes before the public—but the notoriety which has been given to this circumstance obliges us to notice it. From the plain and frank statement made by Mr. WILLIAMS, we are bound to,say that it appears to us that he has been hardly dealt with by the Committee, and that that body has subjected themselves to the im putation which lie has thrown upon them of Moon isistency, in having passed a vote of expulsion upon 'him for having spoken uncourteously of them—while, a few days before, they only censured another mem ber for conduct of a very different character, in which the public generally were concerned. The honour of the House was not tarnished by Mr. WILLIAMS—and the Committee-men, in the plenitude of their authority, ought to 'have passed unheeded, expressions which though disrespectful to themselves, were perfectly con sistent with those nice feelings of honour which dis tinguish the Members of the Stock Exchange. But little minds delight in the exercise of power, and are most eager to indulge this passion for the support of their own petty consequence. Having devoted so much of our Paper of Saturday to the letters from Mr. BOWRING and Mr. HUME, and having inserted in our columns of this day the letter of the latter to the Editor of theMornin g Herald, which we were obliged to omit on Saturday, and an other long letter from the former, we shall be brief in our remarks on the subject. In fact, we think little more is necessary to be said with' regard to Mr. HUME at all events. It is impossible that any lan guage which we can use can put his conduct in more mean and paltry light than that in which he has. pictured it him Self; and as no colouring of ours could improve it, we are quite willing to leave it in the black and white in which the Hon. Member has lineated it. We shall, therefore, only say, that it ap pears to us impossible, after the exposure which has been made, that Mr. HUME can take his seat in the new Parliament ; and we would earnestly recom mend; that he should finish his career by accepting Office—namely, the Stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds. Mr: BOWRING may be briefly dismissed.—The difference in the charge against, and the admis sion of, this gentleman, is this :—lt is assert ed that he held 25,0001. Greek Scrip, and being inconvenienced by the payments already made on it, and Unable to make another, w as relieved by the De puties withdrawing the said sum of 25,0001 . a t 10 per cent. discount, on account of their Government. His letter of the 21st Sept., 18 24, thanks the Deputies for so doing ; and his letter of the 19th October follow ing, requests, that as the crisis of the loan is over, the advance only, and with the under- Scrip may be delivered back to hit. It u —r. ~OWRt- N d, repayment the Scrip was to he re on the other hand, asserts. that the sum of 50001. was As Mr. BOWRING cannot deny his letter of the 21st Sept., which proves the nature of the transac tions, h e very coolly states now on his honour, 6 that he has no recollection of having writte n such a letter,' that it is dated at a time when a heavy family sorrow lent to d ion .; it' that a :49annits occupied: all his thoughts, a time when the mind is hardly answerable for its own acts." Our readers will judge for themselves what credit is to be given to any of the statements of a person who can pretend that. he could accept such a boon as being released from dig responsibility of 25,0001. Greek Scrip at its then dis count, without knowing what he was about at the time, or recollecting it afterwards ! One more remark and we have done with this sub ject. Both Mr. HUME and Mr. BOWRING complain. of the' great sacrifices which they were willing to make_ for the Greek Government. But what were they ? Mr. Huard has lost nothing, and Mr. BOWRING, by his own statement, sustained a loss on this 25,000/. of 13971. 103. only. But we would ark what they would have lost if they, who, by their own shewing, were the persons who accomplished raising the loan, and induced . others by their re presentations to embark their property in it, had not sold their scrip ? What has not Mr. Hume been saved by the conduct of the Greek Deputies, (as he pretends) having obliged him to let them take his scrip off his hands ? The immediate result, it is true, was only a loss to the Greek Government of 1300/., and 1111. interest, and a payment to Mr. HuME of that amount but if he had kept the Scrip, as he declares he s hould have done but for the conduct of these Gentlemen, lie would have been called upon to make all the subse quent payments, and consequently for his 10,0001. scrip would now have been out of pocket 5,900/., and interest thereon ; and its present value Would be 11001. or 1200/. ; consequently he has been saved present loss of nearly 5,000/.

" Strange to say," the writer ob serves, "it is before a young man's entry into the world that he too often becomes an adept at the weans of his own future ruin : it is at those places where lie' ought to learn better things, that he is allowed, we might almost say encouraged, to dedicate to horse racing, to gambling, and to drinking, those hour s which ought to be appropriated to far dilfereut pu suits, and would be so dedicated,,werp th'se o n sz wi e t . h a j e u . stic N e, o u w p , br w ai e d Li th u e le y n o t ut as h w i lla i re i what they profess to be, pl ac e s fore cultivation of ' sound learning and religious education.'
